Photo credits

Most player photos load from the leagues' and ESPN's image servers (see the Copyright page). For players they have no photo of, such as retired legends and people on non-sport cards, BreakSheet shows a freely licensed photo from Wikimedia Commons. They are listed here with their photographer and licence. They load from Wikimedia's servers and are shown cropped to a circle; no other changes are made. A few photos were added by hand, for players no source has; to have one credited or removed, see the Copyright page.
